If you’re a couple looking for a destination venue that is unique and want to forego the all-inclusive vacation, I would highly recommend Villa Punto De Vista in Quepos Costa Rica. Once you hire an awesome wedding planner, you can do alot of the planning abroad through zoom chats. The villa has the most gorgeous views and is equipped with all the amenities you could ask for: rooftop hot tub, a pool, large dining table for all your guests, and a short walk to the beach! The wedding planner made sure Samantha and Justin’s vision came to life: a boho surfer chic styled wedding! Everything was truly flawless, and totally resonated with me: barefoot ceremony in the sand? oh hell ya. The dancers in the evening were such a great ending to an incredible day too!
Since Samantha and Justin love surfing, I took some photos of them on the beach on a day they were surfing with their friends. I love getting to do these mini sessions leading up to the wedding day; it helps me get to know the couple + their family and friends too! I also photographed their rehearsal dinner, which was a white party (everyone dresses white and shows off their tans, or horrible burns if you’re like my half scottish fiance hah).
I feel so lucky as a Destination Wedding Photographer to be able to travel to beautiful countries and photograph love. Check out Samantha and Justin’s story below.
